Description:

The crested shape of this wonderful cactus presents the typical compact fan arrangement that will never be the same from one plant to another, with the addition of geometric anomalies such as protuberances or diversity of spines, typical of the monstrosity of the cactus. Together these aspects contribute to make this absolutely unique exemplar, a real jewel coveted by all the most experienced collectors! In its normal form it is a medium-sized cactus with a solitary appearance and a barrel shape. Its stem, with its characteristic greyish blue color, has well marked ribs, framed by whitish and woolly areoles.

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sun rays, especially during the hottest hours of the day, as long as they might burn the leaves.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 6 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately but only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water it once a week in spring and summer, reduce watering to once every two months in autumn, and to suspend it completely in winter.

The best one is a very well-draining soil specific for cacti.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
